Very nice but why every time you clean the RAM memory the disk is 100% and after a few (10 to 15) seconds returns to 0%, that would eventually give problems to the disk Hdd and SSD its life would be cut. some solution I seek to not reload the disk or similar to that and do not get it that you recommend me Thank you.
Muy Hermoso pero por que cada ves que limpia la memoria RAM el disco se pone 100 % y después de unos cuantos(10 a 15) segundos vuelve a 0% , eso a la larga daría problemas al disco Hdd y SSD su vida útil se cortaría. alguna solución busco para que no vuelva a cargar el disco o parecido a eso y no lo consigo que me recomienda usted Gracias.
Thanks, very effective on old devices. If you have a nice system, it can be run in the background.
It would be ok to add the time less than 5 seconds, I used the old version of 1.4 and it worked with one second.
(Ar fi ok sa adaugati timpul mai mic de 5 secunde, am folosit vechia versiune de 1.4 si mergea cu o secunda.)
@AvenocturnO : Thanks
Impressive, specially for thos very modest & older machines, very, very useful. I’ll send’ya a few bucks more tomorrow.
Very nice application! I always use this to play CSGO without lag! It works!
Good！
Excellent, it has helped me a lot…. I recommend it.
En español..!
Great App. Thank you sooooo Much.
Can you sho the usage percentage in taskbar like the battery icon
excellent
This program seemed like a scam at first but this program is actually great.
One of the biggest memory hogs is Widgets, Edge, Chrome, and Windows Defender, If you have a laptop or a prefab computer, then manufacturer bloatware is another like Lenovo Advantage and similar applications that are part of the OEM Windows build.
Damn, it works like holy shit, how does this work in summary? I’d check if there’s a source code or decompile this to see, but I’m too dumb to comprehend on how this works in technical detail
Thanks Paul
One could think: "We all have tons of Ram now, why a Ram saver" ? But yes, it can still be useful! I have an old laptop with 1Gig of Ram and the browser eats nearly all the Ram so that the machine runs very slowly. With the help of your tool, I can still work with this small PC. Thanks!

You have mentioned a utility of yours called Auto Start Tool. Why isn’t it hosted here in sordum, but instead I find it in other sites like majorgeeks?
